Never driven an S3 but test drove a astra and owned a ctr for a year.

Astra doesnt do anything for me. Not that fast or exciting. But are a really good looking car and you dont see many about Heard they can be greatly improved with a few choice mods though

S3 looks lovely and will be a really nice place to sit and drive and be the quickest im sure. Will hold money well too I think. My main worry would be running and servicing costs on one. As I think it would be a fair bit more then the other two.

Civic is a good all rounder. Loved the time I had in mine and other then some new brake discs it never needed anything and I gave it death on numerous track days etc
Nice and spacious good driving position, nice handling and reaonably fast



My money would be on an S3 if you want a nice fast car and dont drive the arse out of your cars all the time and do track days etc

Or if you enjoy a spirited drive and dont mind working the car hard to have fun get a civic. Although I would pay less for one and get a good condition older one


Drives supercharged Tec with torque

Civic.

S3 does nothing for me at all, Astras are nice but just would like an EP3
